so, sorry for the late response, but yeah I was thinking mainly about DNA, but if the delivery was through DHL or using an OTP i would try the EB (once again, no weight available online for the entire thing, but it could be a bit heavier than the standard 100/120g).

Why Is DHL a problem with the DNA?

In terms of the EB/missing Item method, as you know, the weight plays an Integral role with Its success, hence It's vital to establish It prior to the SE.

Leaking battery is also avaiable for this, since it comes with an extra battery, and i know for a fact that they can get punctured very easily.

Or the disposed of the faulty Item method, which will circumvent the return.

Well DHL could be a problem for 2 reasons mainly: the first one is that I know the guy that usually delivers at my place, and I don’t think I could claim DNA if he gives me the package directly, the second reason is that they tend to be way stricter than other couriers here for some reason

Probably i am going with a bit of luck and statistics this time.
If it is not shipped through DHL then straight DNA it, or else weigh it and if it’s good for EB then go for that. If all else fails then go with the disposal of faulty item (for a leaking battery inside the package).
How does that sound to you? 👀

Under the circumstances, the DNA Is out of the question.

It's quite the opposite In my locality - packages are dumped at the premises and drivers tend to sign consignments themselves.

If it is not shipped through DHL then straight DNA it, or else weigh it and if it’s good for EB then go for that.

Regardless of the model/edition you plan to SE, It's too heavy to EB It.

If all else fails then go with the disposal of faulty item (for a leaking battery inside the package).

The wrong Item received and the sealed box method are also available.

Wrong item with what kind of item do you suggest? Like something similar or completely random?
Sealed box could be fun to try, never attempted that somehow

Any stock Item, preferably from the same category, that's almost (or exactly) the same weight as the Item being SEd.

Apart from Amazon and Apple, It has a very high success rate.

Alright awesome. One more thing... do you guys think this 680$ product is worth the risk and hassle or should I go with only the camera itself for a cheaper 450$?

No difference.

Both are classed In the mid value range.

Alright guys, so it came in today with UPS. They asked for a name, but no signature. I think the leaking battery/disposal of faulty item is to be excluded, since everything was very VERY carefully and meticulously packed.
Sealed box doesnt make too much sense. The GoPro is inside a travel bag, so it can't be sealed back, and moreover a sort of paper-like wrap with GoPro's logo was around it, so I really don't know if it's worth the hassle.
DNA? What to do?
